Best Location and RENOVATIONS JUST COMPLETED JULY 2021

We purchased this property (February 2021) and just finished renovations in both units July 2021.

This is such an amazing location on 28th Street, 5 houses from the sand and walking distance to everything including the Newport Pier, shops and restaurants. Park your cars in the garage for the duration of your stay and walk everywhere, down the boardwalk to shop, people watch or eat, to Lido Island for some shopping or coffee. During summer take the free Trolley to the Balboa Pier and visit the Fun Zone, then hop on the Ferry and head over to Balboa Island for a frozen banana and some fun boutique shopping.

These are two separate units, each has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (total of 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms). There are no internal doors connecting the two units. There is a big patio downstairs and a balcony with views of the ocean upstairs. Each unit has brand new Air Conditioning but the cross breeze in the upstairs unit is phenomenal and you often don't even need the AC. The property is just steps to the sand (5 houses). We provide all of the boogie boards, surf boards, wet suits, beach towels, sand toys, wagons, coolers, pop up tents and umbrellas, basically everything you need for the beach and it's all in good condition.

Downstairs Unit:
The master bedroom is large for Newport. The master has an ensuite with shower, toilet and double sink. The queen room is not as big but still decent size especially for Newport. The bunk room is small but is a fun room for kids with the alcove twin bed and a queen bed. There are mirrored closets in two of the rooms, and TV's in all rooms.

Upstairs Unit:
This unit has higher ceilings and is really nice and bright. It is a little larger than the downstairs unit in all rooms including the living room. This bunk bed room has a twin over twin and also a queen bed. The master bedroom is also nice and roomy and has an ensuite like the downstairs unit.

If you haven't visited Newport Beach and the Peninsula before it is a lot of fun. It's very laid back here. Just bring your bathing suit and some flip flops. You can rent bikes, paddleboards, duffy boats, take sunset cruises, whale watch and so much more. Disneyland is only 20 minutes away, Legoland is 1 hour away, and Los Angeles is 1 hour away. Balboa Island, Lido Island should not be missed during your stay. And from here you can get to so many other amazing beaches including Laguna Beach, Monarch Beach, Corona Del Mar, Huntington Beach and more!

Great Location!
Annual March Madness trip. Both places were very clean and the location to the beach cannot be beat! A few of us used the surfboards and wetsuits (water was cold and the wetsuits helped!) The view from the upstairs balcony was awesome. Everyone had a bed which was a plus. Short walk to the beach, shops, restaurants, bars. Would highly recommend!

Great place, great host, don't hesitate to book.
The condos are as described and photographed. The communication was great. The location is very close (1/2 block) to a great beach and very close to beachfront dining. We will be back.

Great beach house
We had a fantastic stay at this beach house. Right from the onset, we were impressed by how clean and well-maintained the place was. The house was generously stocked with all the beach essentials - plenty of towels, chairs, and even assortment of beach toys for the kids. The beach was conveniently located within a 4 to 5-minute walk, and having food options and coffee shops right across the street was a huge plus. Lisa, as a host, was outstanding. She was incredibly responsive to any questions we had and went out of her way to make our stay comfortable. We had a wonderful experience, and we are eagerly looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended!

Great property excellent location
We absolutely loved this property. It’s perfect location for beach activities! Park and walk everywhere! The house was clean, plenty of beach toys, beach chairs, and towels. Our only struggles was we chose to leave a day early due to hurricane/tropical storm Hilary. Hopefully we can book again this spring! Thank you Lisa. You were very communicative and kind!

Beautiful spot in Newport
Lisa was a wonderful host! The house had everything we could’ve wanted and more. The beds were comfortable. It was very spacious and felt like we could spread out on not feel cramped. It was a super quick walk to the beach and to restaurants. I can be at location. The home is beautiful and has been taken care of. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends and family.
